Zoà« is actually a dynamic little 8 month old fire cracker of a puppy who is very eager and willing to please. She is more terrier than toy! With the right guidance and work, Zoà« will learn to signal an owner that she needs to go outside. She needs more supervision and would do best if kept on a lead in the house so she has no opportunity to get out of sight and do her own thing. Little Zoe needs MUCH less crate and confinement and LOTS more carefully supervised activity.

Zoà« picks up on training fast. She is a dynamo outside and very eager to play. She will NOT be happy being just a lap dog. Her energy level rivals that of many larger dogs. Little Zoà« would do best in an energetic home that is willing to walk her, play actively with her as well as strongly consider Agility, Flyball or even the lower-key but still fun Rally. Zoà« is very willing to find her own entertainment if she is not being given enough training, supervision and attention. Again, Zoà« seems to live up to the Terrier half of her name. Energetic, driven, sweet but in need of something fun to direct her drives. If she is left alone for long periods of time, Zoà« has already proven to be an adept garbage spreader and chewer. She is just bored and in need of close one-on-one time with a person who can be as fun, driven and willing to be fun though in charge, an Alpha- as no-nonsense as Zoà« can be.
Zoà« is far more than her current owner is capable of sanely managing at this time. She is a fun little diamond in the "ruff."

KEEP THESE FACTS IN MIND:
1. Yorkies do not usually get along well with small children and can be injured by small children, even ones who love them. Be aware of this and keep them apart. 2. Yorkies can be very difficult (nearly impossible) to housebreak. If you are gone for more than 3 hours at a time, the dog will have to have access to wee wee pads, or need someone to stop in to let him out to potty.
3. We almost NEVER get a puppy (less than one year old) in Yorkie Rescue. If only a puppy will do, check the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America website for a recommended breeder - never buy over the Internet, or from a newspaper ad or a petstore. The heartache you save will be immeasureable.
4. There is no such thing as a "teacup" Yorkie, so don't be misled by such a description. LEARN about the breed BEFORE you decide to adopt.
5. You will need to make arrangements to drive and meet the dog at the foster home which can be in New Jersey, western PA, Maryland,  etc. The dog's biography lists where the dog is fostering. We want you to meet the dog with your family and your dog, if you have one. This is a requirement for adoption.

WHAT IS THE ADOPTION FEE?
Adoption donations generally vary from dog to dog, it depends on the health, the age and the size of the dog.

Young Yorkies will have a higher adoption donation since they are the most highly sought after and they help to cover the costs of the older dogs who have a harder time finding a loving home. It is sad but true that people overwhelming demand very young dogs when they would be infinitely happier with a mellow adult. 

 

 ADOPTION AREA

Save A Yorkie Rescue prefers to adopt only in the PA, NJ, western NY, DE, MD, VA, some CT area's. If you are in the NYC area or near Long Island, there is a Yorkie Rescue closer to you. 

Be aware that you will be asked to drive to meet and pick up your dog.
